The photographer wasn’t actually taking a selfie, according to the witnesses he was backing down to take a picture of something else and hit the statue. The museum staff is saying that the restoration is going to be a difficult one, but it should be successful.

It's not just the fake news websites that are a problem, it's the ones that are in such a rush to publish that they do not bother to do any fact-checking.
